How Dangerous Is Mould?
Why Acting Quickly Matters
Mould is considered a level 1 health risk, similar to asbestos. Its presence can pose serious health concerns, especially if not addressed promptly. For mould to thrive, the following conditions are typically required:
- Organic Food Source – Materials like wood, paper, or fabric provide nutrients for mould growth.
- Stagnant Air – Poor ventilation allows mould spores to settle and multiply.
- Time – Mould develops rapidly, often within 24-48 hours under the right conditions.
- Moisture – High humidity or damp surfaces are essential for mould to grow.
If you notice mould on walls, ceilings, or personal belongings, it is vital to identify and eliminate the underlying cause. Certain types of mould produce mycotoxins, harmful substances designed to fend off other microorganisms. These mycotoxins can trigger allergic reactions or illnesses in humans.
Who Is Most at Risk?
Certain groups are more vulnerable to the effects of mould exposure, including:
- Babies and young children.
- Elderly individuals.
- People with skin conditions like eczema.
- Those with respiratory issues, such as asthma or allergies.
- Individuals with weakened immune systems, including cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy.
Prompt action to remove mould and address its causes is critical to protecting your health and well-being.
Understanding the Cause of Mould
Find the Cause, Stop the Problem
Microbial organisms, such as moulds, are present both indoors and outdoors. However, in a healthy indoor environment, visible fungal growth should not occur. The primary factor contributing to mould growth indoors is excess moisture. Materials can become damp through direct water exposure, capillary moisture absorption, physical contact, or from the surrounding air, especially if they are hygroscopic.
Understanding the root cause of microbial growth is essential for creating an effective remediation plan and ensuring mould does not return after treatment. For a free mould remediation estimate, get in touch with Dry Property:
